Abstract

In the present article, we study time-varying hydromagnetic chemically reacting free convective flow of a viscous, incom pressible radiating fluid past an infinite oscillating vertical plate with variable surface conditions subject to transverse magnetic field in the presence of temperature dependent heat source. Soret and Dufour effects are taken into consideration. The radiative heat flux is simplified by using Rosseland approx imation. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using the symbolic algebra software MAPLE 17. The velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are presented in graphs and discussed. It is observed that Soret, Dufour, chemical reaction parameter, heat source parameter, radiation parameter and magnetic field parameter affect the flow pattern significantly.
